In the house of Helios, god of the sun and mightiest of the Titans, a daughter is born. But Circe is a strange child--not powerful, like her father, nor viciously alluring like her mother. Turning to the world of mortals for companionship, she discovers that she does possess power--the power of witchcraft, which can transform rivals into monsters and menace the gods themselves.
Threatened, Zeus banishes her to a deserted island, where she hones her occult craft, tames wild beasts and crosses paths with many of the most famous figures in all of mythology, including the Minotaur, Daedalus and his doomed son Icarus, the murderous Medea, and, of course, wily Odysseus.
But there is danger, too, for a woman who stands alone, and Circe unwittingly draws the wrath of both men and gods, ultimately finding herself pitted against one of the most terrifying and vengeful of the Olympians. To protect what she loves most, Circe must summon all her strength and choose, once and for all, whether she belongs with the gods she is born from, or the mortals she has come to love.
##我竟然听完了,真的就只有最后1/4比较有趣,之前的所有角色都predictable到了一定程度。全世界都对不起女主,所以她被流放前做的那些和她同族一样冷酷自私的事并不妨碍她稳站道德高地。Daedalus做错了什么被写成和她同病相怜的怪物制造者......结尾也够双标,只写她和Telemachus结合(先吃完不会变老的种族福利),而不提Penelope和Telegonus这对。小说结尾Prometheus应该已经获释了吧,对女主那么重要的角色好歹提一下啊(不了不了,免得女主又要谈恋爱🤦)。这个玛丽苏故事就是上半年各家书店推荐的女性小说,挺失望的。
评分##Humbling women seems to me a chief pastime of poets. As if there can be no story unless we crawl and weep. They barely care if you are wicked. The only thing that makes them listen is power. 书名干脆翻译为《白莲女神误入凡尘之我要复仇》🙄🙄🙄 你看女👊锤不锤你就完了
评分##冰冷,残酷而瑰丽,无论是凡人还是神灵,女性总面临相似的恐惧与困境。无尽的大理石柱廊和其上跳跃的火焰,神拥有庄严的力量和漫长得望不见尽头的寿命,但生命却从指尖如砂砾般流逝,无从获得美丽而不朽的爱。
评分##最后我以为Circe是要把对方变成神,没想到一番畅想之后是要把自己变成人。就像人类会梦想永恒光荣,神会期待短暂炽烈。主题之一是爱,但爱是什么呀?【好久不读小说,读了一本还是神话题材,觉得还不错。】

评分##这是一本从女性视角讲诉希腊神话的娓娓道来的小说,我愿称之为一个女人的史诗。大众熟知的史诗都是男人写的,写的也都是男人,波澜壮阔,喊打喊杀,这何尝不是一种玛丽苏?那些拿这本小说跟女尊文或者荷马史诗作比的人未免也太可笑了,我只感受到了社会对于女性依然深重的偏见,以及我们需要更多像Madeline Miller这样的作家。

评分##很少读希腊神话的我觉得耳目一新,非常喜欢!作者文笔非常好,有声书的朗读也好听。
评分##一手好牌打得稀烂大概就是这本书了……和我概念里的“女性视角讲希腊神话”真的完全不是一回事,这个第一人称真的把故事讲得太单薄了,希腊神话的厚重感宿命感和悲剧色彩全都丢掉,变成一个被家族唾弃的青少年女孩谈恋爱的故事,中后段稍微有点意思,结尾又很WTF,神真的会这么恋爱脑吗?还有这本书的narrator差评,如果不是她滥用whispering voice的话这个故事可能还能听
